| | Both isotopologs were detected in archival HIFI///Herschel// data taken toward the Class 0 protostar IRAS 16293−2422. Very high degrees of deuteration were inferred.\\ |

| | NHD observations are based on archival APEX data, ND<sub>2</sub> observations on archival HIFI///Herschel// data as above. The numbers are very similar to the ones above. One can deduce deuteration degrees per A atom of ~0.25 and ~0.35 for NHD and ND<sub>2</sub>, respectively, from their total column densities.\\ |
